FLORES
PRATS:
Adapting spaces
The projects of Barcelona firm Flores
Prats evolve
through an operative drawing methodology adapted from the office of Enric
Miralles. Less about representation, it is a technique that enables the
project to emerge through a process of over-drawing in plan. It is initiated
as a mapping of the groundplane, whereby all the conditions of the context
are ascribed the same importance. Flores Prats will discuss their work
and ideas through a number of built and conceptual projects.

India
– Tracing Contemplative Space
Dr Michael Tawa, Ainslie Murray and their UNSW architecture studio offer
an evening of subcontinental magic.
In moments of a strange and terrifying silence, we squeezed past
buses on threadbare mountain roads to arrive at crowded roadheads where
– thankfully – we farewelled all vehicles and set off on
foot. It was through this ritual walking that I came to know something
more of this place – the architecture, the landscape, the people,
and the patterns of life.

Lacoste
+ Stevenson
They are wonders (and we're not referring
to Thierry's fashion sense, though in Paris, some say, it may have a
certain currency). This Slidenight we invite you to roast your marshmallows
on the fire of architects Thierry Lacoste + David Stevenson as they
share their good humour + innovative ideas for global questions.

Richard
Tipping
Adelaide artist Richard Tipping's poignant and hilarious work moves

Janet
Laurence
For me the veil is the space
between perception and memory.
Still space, slow space.
A dissolving membrane, a hesitation.
A way of looking within the world rather than at it.
Renowned + much loved Sydney artist Janet Laurence will peel back and
reveal her creative world, addressing the uncertainty within processes.
For the second week in a row, this Slidenight promises much more Art
than Architecture!
